| Poor Little Robyn! My littlest girl, Robyn, can be such a fiesty thing; but lately the others seem to gang up on her (double-team her as my kids say). One will grab each ear and pull her. I'm sorta afraid they will hurt her. But next thing I know, she is biting their legs and tails and generally antagonizing everyone. Do you think they might really hurt her though?

| True, usually everyone will attack a wet dog, fresh from the bath; someone with a new bow or outfit on. That one better be ready to run. They all like to find a bone, stick, or anything someone else may want. If they get a bite - he will run, bury his face and growl as everyone else barks like mad. But I do worry more about Robbie more because she is so much smaller. She just doesn't act like it.

| Our two boys fight with each other, too. It can get pretty crazy - I can't even think of how to describe what it looks or sounds like - just imagine the tasmanian devil running through your living room making sounds like a cat fight and maybe you'll be close. It's pretty awful sounding, and whenever they do it in front of guests, the guests usually freak out. Anyway, they tug each other's ears, they pull each other around by the tail and they latch on to legs and snouts and whatever they can. But, in spite of all that, we can tell that they're just playing with each other. We know this because one time, several months ago, one of them actually did bite the other too hard, and the hurt one made a high pitched, obviously in pain, YELP! and the fighting ceased immediately and didn't start up again until the next time they were ready to play. So, unless your little girl really yelps in pain, and you'll be able to tell if she does, I'd say there's nothing to worry about. Just let them play fight and get their exercise! Oh, and it's our little one that usually picks the fights and is the most rough on the other, so I'm guessing Robyn can hold her own.
